I read that the Harrah's group took over Planet Hollywood. Does that mean that Planet Ho will now be part of the Harrah’s group. Will the Harrah’s players club card work at Planet Ho? And also will Harrah’s patrons receive offers to stay and play at Planet Ho?

What do you think the chances of casinos being approved in Texas at the next legislative meeting? Hundreds of millions of gambling dollars are currently going to Louisiana, Oklahoma and New Mexico which cold be kept in Texas.

We hear that whales can sometimes make or break a week, month, or even a quarter when it comes to a casino's gambling revenue. Is it possible, or has it ever happened, that a casino underperformed in a quarter due to one or two huge losses to a few whales, and in turn, its stocks dropped? Would the company inform the stock holders that it wasn't due to lower visitation or gambling volume, but simply due to some good luck by a few people?

Texas does not have a casino. I live in Texas. They had one in Livingston (tribal) but they outlawed it. I heard there was one in west Texas but how can that be it the one in East Texas was outlawed?

Your QOD on casinos per state did not include Alabama. I know of at least five Alabama "casinos," including one you that Stiffs & Georges mentioned as having the sixth largest number of machines in the U.S. These are officially "Bingo" machines but there are video poker and Double Diamonds and other familiar varieties. No table games, of course. Did you exclude these because they are officially Bingo parlors, or because Alabama is currently going through a controversy about their "casinos"?

In a recent QoD (12/20) you list the number of casinos in each state; my question is what qualifies a business as being a casino? I live in Maine and only know of one "casino," Hollywood Slots, yet you list there being 3 here. What am I missing?

I am interested in knowing how the sponsership for the WSOP works. I noticed the winner, Joe Cada, prior to the Final 9 break, was wearing Ultimate Bet logos and then after the 3-month break, came back wearing PokerStars. I have to imagine that the sponsership offer from Pokerstars must have trumped Ultimate Bet's offer. I would have thought that Joe Cada might have some obligation to Ultimate Bet since he was originally wearing their gear. Please elaborate.

You say all California casinos are tribal, but that’s if you don't count the card rooms where you can play poker, blackjack, baccarat, 3-Card Poker, pai gow poker, pai gow, and even some versions of craps. There are probably around 50 of those in California.

I just got barred from playing blackjack at the Mirage with an explanation of, "Your skill level is such that we no longer want your play here". What's the worst that could happen to me if I go back and am caught playing again, or if I were to visit another of their sister casinos and am caught? Is it true they can't bar you from playing in Atlantic City any more?
